Import Tips

Include technical data sheets confirming 'basic paper for sensitization' status and absence of any light-sensitive layers

Check for proper HTS declaration; mislabeling as finished photo paper leads to penalties under Chapter 37

Ensure documentation shows kaolin or inorganic coating only, no organic binders that might classify under different coatings
